Offensive tackle Everett Benyard (6-7, 320, 5.1) from San Diego (Calif.) Cathedral Catholic took his first official visit this weekend to the campus of Oregon and he liked what he saw.

"It was amazing," Benyard said. "Everything went above and beyond what I expected."

"I really got a feel for how the coaches relate to their players and bond with them," Benyard said. "I was able to get an up close view of how it would be to be coached by them. The camaraderie of Oregon's team was something I hadn't seen before."

"I haven't committed to them yet, but I am getting close," Benyard said. "I am going to discuss with my family. My dad went on the trip with me and I am sure we are going to talk about on the flight home."
